good things happen to those who wait

When a person really desires something, all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream.

-- The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho

there are moments in my life when God and I disagree with our plans for my life.whenever that happens, i stubbornly insist on what i want.sometimes he lets me be, but more than once i fail.and then He sneaks into my life as if saying, "sinasabi ko na nga ba eh.tigas kasi ulo.haysh." and then as if with a sigh again, He helps me pick up the pieces and life goes on.of course with a few extra loads of added wisdom and lessons learned from the resistance period.

the reason for this muni-muni thought is because i am experiencing it again.i wanted something to happen to my life so badly that i started acting irrational and walang EQ again.i felt i was going into a plateau; status quo.i felt life should be full of nonstop fireworks and loud bangs. in fact, i was bitching on someone because i thought that person could give me what i wanted.classic brat drama.

and then somewhere along the way, i saw a glimmer of hope that i could still probably get what i want but that i have to wait a little longer.and this cool God of ours even managed to arrange a few things to keep me busy during the waiting period.He even gave me some bonus workloads that i could use for that something that i wanted. He also shoved me into the right path since i was going counterflow in a one way lane with no exits.

they say life is full of roses.id say imperfect but beautiful, bright wildflowers.

things to do in the dark

• organize a party at the dorm.lets play some games! sabi nga ni marco, taguan-pung daw.haha.bawal pumasok sa mga rooms!mag-ingat sa mga cabinets sa kitchen, baka biglang sumali sina mickey at minnie. :D

• kung ayaw niyo ng taguan-pung, charades na lang.no coaching please.

• mag-inuman.make sure lang na mga drinkable ang nasa harapan ninyo.bawal magdala ng gaas.ay teka, bawal palang mag-inuman sa dorm.hahaha.labas tayo mga kapatid! :D

• ituloy ang PUTO series nina alvin.hehehe.love ko talaga yung PUTOcopy.classic!haha.

• magtakutan with ghost stories.make sure lang na tao pa ang kausap mo at hindi mumu.

• eto seryoso na: unplug yourself from all things that use electric power!mag-muni-muni about life.have some quality me-time.light that scented candle you've been displaying sa study table mo.maglinis ng kuko.o kaya brush your hair a hundred times.wag lumapit sa kandila baka wala ka ng buhok na iba-brush kinabukasan.

• instead of tuning in to your mp3s, why dont you grab that guitar and strum a few songs?kung wala kang gitara, maggitara na lang sa hangin.pretend, pretend.isang oras ka lang naman magiging baliw. :)

• get a home service massage.yeah, i think that's the best on-top-of-mind idea i have while writing this blog.scented candle+whole body massage.

flowers of summer

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer's lease hath all too short a date.."

-Sonnet 18, William Shakespeare

makeovers

this day was spent making makeovers in my triple w life.i overhauled templates for my chrome, firefox and of course this blog.and being an OC, i spent half of the day doing just that.

i love the new theme of this blog by the way.it still has that sunshine-y and summer-y feel to it.and its not done yet.am planning to add new pics in the sidebar column.

am using firefox as i am writing this.but i figured i would have to go back to chrome tomorrow.nothing beats its minimalist feature.

hafta keep this post short (as i have been doing for most of my entries lately).gotta download themes for my phone.yey! =)

love him.

stories one had to earn

For Tom Hansen, this was the night where everything changed. That wall Summer so often hid behind – the wall of distance, of space, of casual – that wall was slowly coming down. For here was Tom, in her world… a place few had been invited to see with their own eyes. And here was Summer, wanting him there. Him, no one else.

As he listened, Tom began to realize that these stories weren’t routinely told. These were stories one had to earn. He could feel the wall coming down. He wondered if anyone else had made it this far. Which is why the next six words changed everything.

“I’ve never told anybody that before.”

“I guess I’m not just anybody.”

– 500 Days of Summer

Rosas ng digma (Rose of war)

Sumibol sa isang panahong marahas
Bawat pagsubok ay iyong hinarap
At hangga’t laya’y di pa nakakamtan
Buhay mo’y aking laan

(Blossoming in a period of strife,
You faced all challenges
And so long as freedom has not been achieved
I offer you my life)

Namumukadkad at puno ng sigla
Tulad mo’y rosas sa hardin ng digma
At di maiwasan sa iyo ay humanga
Ang tulad kong mandirigma

(Blooming and full of life,
You are like a rose in the garden of war
And a warrior like me
Could not help but admire you)

Ako’y nangangarap na ika’y makasama
Taglay ang pangakong iingatan kita
Ang gandang mong nahubog sa piling ng masa
Hinding-hindi kukupas, di malalanta

(I dream of being with you
Promising to cherish you
Your beauty that grew in the midst of the people
Will never fade, will never dry up)

Ang kulay mong angkin, singtingkad ng dugo
Nagbibigay-buhay sa bawat puso
Tinik mo’y sagisag ng tapang at giting
Sa laranga’y kislap ng bituin

(Your color is as bright as blood
That brings life to every heart
Your thorns symbolize courage and valour
In battle, you are the shining star)

Ako’y nangangarap na ika’y makasama
Taglay ang pangakong iingatan kita
Ang gandang mong nahubog sa piling ng masa
Hinding-hindi kukupas, di malalanta

(I dream of being with you
Promising to cherish you
Your beauty that grew in the midst of the people
Will never fade, will never dry up)

Ako’y nangangarap na ika’y makasama
Taglay ang pangakong iingatan kita
Ang gandang mong nahubog sa piling ng masa
Hinding-hindi kukupas, di malalanta

(I dream of being with you
Promising to cherish you
Your beauty that grew in the midst of the people
Will never fade, will never dry up)

Gaya ng pag-ibig na alay ko, sinta

(Like the love I offer you, my dear)

celebrating women's day

"One could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs, or the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls."

— Khaled Hosseini

PISO lang!

nadagdagan ng PISO yung resibo ng plane fare ko.at dahil jan, katakot-takot na justification letter ang pinagawa sken. yung ink ng printer, bond paper at cost ng pagpa-fax sa makati ay mas mahal pa sa piso na salarin sa lahat.

all for the glory of liquidation.
